Regarding the taste and warmth, I used the Camelback for my first ride to GA and combated that issue with deliberate backwash. When done drinking, I blew the water back in to the pack. It made for a puffy Camelback after a time, but it was never an issue and the water was always cold!

For the past year I have been riding with a 70 oz. camel Back. I like to wear it under my Aerostich for several reasons. First when it is 1/2 full of ice it feels cold on my back. Second I can drink all day just by pulling the tube out of my jacket. Third the Camelback is protected from the elements, sun, bugs, rain etc.
I also wear the Camelback for mountain biking and have grown to depend on it during the summer. The only negative is a slight plastic taste and warmer water when starting to drink from what is in the tube.

I had fun at the track day yesterday. I had one of those days where I
never got completely comfortable and so was slower than I was at the
last track day I did which was annoying.
I am signed up for a saddle sore 1000 this Saturday. It is going to be
hot and after reading Tim's 50cc story I am thinking a CamelBak may be
a good idea.
I have never owned one of these and no little about them. I am not a
big fan of riding with anything on my back. I searched the archives
and someone mentioned keeping one in their tank bag. I guess this
means you need to grab the tube every time you want a drink.
So who has some CamelBak wisdom/experience to share?
Rupert
